Description
This is my recreation of Skyrush at Hersheypark. In this park, a termite infestation on the classic wooden coaster Comet went undetected and therefore, the iconic wooden coaster has to be removed.

Congrats on the NE debut Jan! Its a very nice park. I really like the recreation of Skyrush here, only issue is the drop shaping is a bit weird for my taste, but other than that its really good imo. Palette is a touch too washed-out perhaps. The stadium is pretty cool and theres some other really nice ideas in here. Good work! Hope to see some other people chime in here too!
Super cool, I like the coaster quite a bit and the detail with the train to match to the real thing. I think the oversized carousel sticks out a lot more than I'd like it to here and think a flat ride carousel decorated might of worked better. The other flat rides are creative, but the color choices maybe needed more dulling to avoid sticking out like the red flat ride. The swinger looks nice though and the buildings are pleasant.
Glad to see you on NE! I've been absolutely loving your DKMP work and I'm super impressed at how good you're getting so quickly. Skyrush seems true to form and using the single rail cars as spacers is genius. I'm not sure what the decision was to have termites eat Comet alive, but it's very convincing down to the termite mounds and little golf ball termites scurrying around. The hockey rink cutaway is also a bold move and I love how the interior turned out. I'd definitely feel comfortable calling this a Design.
I'm planning a trip soon to Hersheypark, so this is a good primer.
Shame the termites got to Comet before I could get there. Those termite mound details are pretty funny, good touch. I laughed at the mechanic hanging from the lift hill.
The coaster was a fun ride, I'll report back with a comparison after I've visited the real one. Looks like a well done recreation, based on the maps and pics I'm looking at!
Good to see you share on NE. Welcome!
I think Skyrush itself is neat. Pretty successful recreation of the coaster I'd say. Bummer to not have Comet up and running though, I think having it interact with Skyrush was a huge opportunity missed. The carousel building also seemed to be a bit under detailed and oversized. Probably would've gone with a smaller tent and then surrounded it with the covered walkways/colonnades like IRL. Having said that, the ice rink was pretty cool to say. Unique for sure!
Either way, very solid layout and look forward to seeing more from you.
Very nice layout. I understand it's a rec, but that's still hard to do with a coaster type that has no inversion elements or anything. I also liked how you placed it against the hillside and water.
Stylistically I didn't enjoy this too much. I thought the design choices were a bit too simple and lacked artistic merit. The trackitecture throughout also seemed too formulaic and technocratic to me.
I think you need to embrace more organic designs.
This is actually very solid Jan. It feels very accurate to the real thing. I do wish that comet was also included in its entirety but I understand why it isn't and this is a clever enough work around. I think you should focus on making your architecture more cohesive in future builds. You have the forms down for the most part, but a lot of the texturing clashes and stands out in a bad way. For instance the skyrush station uses 4 different textures 2 of which are different brick sizes that contrast against each other. Regardless of my feedback, this is a fun little design and a great entry point onto the site for you well done and I hope you continue to post more!
I'm not calling you out on this, I'm more so just curious/confused about the term technocratic. You've used it multiple times now and based on the definition it doesn't make sense to me. Is it an artistic term that I may not have heard of?
